    I'm pretty sure you remember our previous owners, and how that all worked so well.
    Did I suggest that others have been better? I think not.

    But our present owners could be so much more. They can inspire a new generation of fans, not by giving freebies to those who don't deserve, but by giving tickets to youngsters as nil or next to nil cost (invest to accumulate). All Pl clubs could shut their turnstiles and still make megabucks, how about LUFC OPEN theirs for FREE as long as you are a member (any grade)? Won't happen, we don't have ownership or infrastructure to make it possible, but "if only".

    Kids are well catered for by the club & local clubs Junior teams are given free seats at home games often sat around me with a free tour of ER before the Saturday games.

    Players & staff visit all communities initiatives including Roberts and all do a damn good job of it.

    Many of the club sponsorship deals focuses on support for the LUFC Foundation and local initiatives within the community.

    Also the club is set to launch in September 2021 at various locations Careers advisory help via an Education team to deliver careers events at local High Schools.

    The club does so much these days with the community and schools. Look at handing over the Pavillion as a Covid test and vaccination centre.

    All the work the players did with kids during lockdown. The plans for the new training ground and ground itself.

    Sending out a few free kits to promote the club surely can’t get you that wound up it’s good publicity and adds to the virtuous circle of improving the clubs standing and reputation.

    We wanted to be in the PL ergo we have to be a proper commercial operation but we seem to do it in as sensible way as possible.
